  • Brooke Astor and the Other Elderly in New York Spring, 2010
    ARTICLE: Regrettably Unfair: Brooke Astor and the Other Elderly in New York Spring, 2010 Reporter 30 Pace L. Rev. 1004 Length: 23542 words Author: Joseph A. Rosenberg* *Professor of Law, CUNY School of Law. Thank you to my colleague, Ruthann Robson, for lending a caring and insightful ear that helped crystallize the idea for this article. My interest in using this book as a foundation for an article was sparked by the author, Meryl Gordon, during a conversation we had at the Brookdale Center on Aging Chinese New Year dinner in 2009. LexisNexis Summary … This article juxtaposes the damning and cautionary tale of the Astor/Marshall family within the broader context of the plight of vulnerable elders whose lives, in stark contrast to Brooke Astor, are shaped in large part by poverty, powerlessness, and injustice. … Yet the juxtaposition of the long, grim, and sad history of the Astor/Marshall family dysfunction, the domestic violence BrookeAstor suffered at the hands of her first husband, the almost unimaginably generous, thoughtful, and transformative charitable giving of the Astor Foundation, Brooke's genuine affection for people regardless of their station in life, her intellectual curiosity and passion for life, and the neglect and exploitation she suffered that marred the last years of her life, prevent one from merely dismissing Brooke Astor as a wealthy dilettante. … Astor a widow at age 55 and the beneficiary of a $ 60 million trust fund and control over the Astor Foundation. … Astor's 100th birthday was Charlene Marshall, Anthony's third wife, whom he met while they were both married to other people (she to the local minister at the church in the Maine town where the Astors had their summer home).

  • Leading Lady: the New York Legacy of Brooke Astor Built by William
    Leading Lady: The New York Legacy of Brooke Astor Built by William Waldorf Astor in 1901, The Astor embodies Gilded Age elegance on the Upper West Side. While other projects included the original Waldorf Hotel, his cousin John Jacob built the adjoining Astoria (as well as the Knickerbocker and the St. Regis) before perishing on the Titanic. The Astor family were the nation’s first millionaires. Widely known as the landlords of New York, they were also the stars of fin-de-siecle society. The Astor’s legacy and sway in the city lasted for almost two centuries. In the decades after the first world war, socially conscious William Vincent Astor divested the family holdings of slum properties, built playgrounds in Harlem and the Bronx, supported Roosevelt’s New Deal, and – as director of Chase Manhattan – spied for the United States during the Cold War by reporting Soviet account balances to the U.S. Treasury. Vincent Astor’s role, however, was eclipsed by his shining wife, Brooke Astor. While her husband eschewed high society, Mrs. Astor’s style, elegance, and intelligence meant she was more than capable of stepping up to fill the social role expected of the family, and she became one of the most important social figures of 20th-century New York. Widowed only six years after her marriage to Vincent, Brooke Astor carried on the Astor legacy for the rest of her life. Before his death, her husband had already placed her on the board of the Astor Foundation, and after he was gone, she took charge of the family’s other philanthropic ventures.

Viva La Selva By Brad EmerSon nly a few grand ‘cottages’ of Bar Harbor’s era as a glamorous sum- mer resort survive. One of the most famous, La Selva, is for sale. Its story is O quintessentially American, a serial whose in- stallments might have been written by How- ells, Wharton, or Fitzgerald. La Selva (selva is Spanish for jungle or for- est) was built in 1902 for Andrew Jackson Da- vis, a successful coal operator from Wilkes- Barre, Pennsylvania. His big payday came in 1900, when he sold the mines to the LeHigh Railroad and retired to enjoy his new fortune. The family had summered in Northeast Har- bor, but now they set their sights on Bar Har- bor, where they felt the scenery was even finer, and where in the company of some of America’s most prominent families–Mor- gans, Vanderbilts, Pulitzers, McCormicks, and Livingstons–their marriageable daugh- ters would be launched in society. LOVE AMONG THE RUINS–La Selva, looking more than a little bit haunted; harsh elements and neglect are well on their way to reclaiming the jaunty checkerboard tile patio. 7 6 p o r t l a n d monthly magazine jennifer kearns m a y 2 0 1 3 7 7 house of the month useum m C rad emerson (2); titani B ourtesy C tures (2); C A YEAR TO REMEMBER–From top: John Jacob Astor

Women of Long Island: Mary Williamson Averell Harriman; her daughter, Mary Harriman Rumsey by Judith Ader Spinzia . Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is a presence we take somewhat for granted today and the study of genetics is not the little experimental corner of biology, still dominated by Gregor Mendel’s experiments with garden peas, that it was in the late 1950s when this author chose to pursue a discipline still in its infancy. Far-sighted people of immense dedication studied and researched and exchanged ideas in Cold Spring Harbor under the auspices of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. If the clock is turned back just a bit further, the legacy becomes clearer, controversial, and more fascinating because it is the establishment of the Eugenics Research Office at Cold Spring Harbor, although, in retrospect, based on faulty science, through which a home for the study of inherited human characteristics was created. The philanthropy of Mary Williamson Averell Harriman provided the institution whose presence has enabled us to watch the growth of the science of genetics right here in our midst, a discipline through which we have been brought to knowledge of the human genome. Mary Williamson Averell Harriman (1851-1932) was the daughter of William J. Averell, a banker from Rochester, NY, and his first wife, Mary Lawrence Williamson.

  • Brooke Astor 1902 - 2007
    Brooke Astor 1902 - 2007 Memorialized by the ASTOR FUND FOR PUBLIC SCHOOL LIBRARIES in The New York Community Trust or 38 years, Brooke Astor was New York City’s fairy godmother. As president of the VincentF Astor Foundation from 1959 to 1997, Mrs. Astor gave away more than $195 million to libraries, museums, hospitals, homeless shelters, and community programs all over the City. A list of the foundation’s grant recipients reads like a must-see itinerary for visitors to the Big Apple: Among the many landmarks Mrs. Astor and her foundation helped support or save are the New York Public Library, the Bronx Zoo, the Morgan Library, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park, and the South Street Seaport. But also prominent in the Astor Foundation’s annual reports—and of paramount importance to Mrs. Astor—were thousands of smaller organizations and community programs dedicated to giving all New Yorkers a chance for a better home, a better education, and a better life. Philanthropy may have ultimately been Mrs. Astor’s calling, but over the course of her formidable 105 years she wore many different—and always impeccably tailored—hats. A devoted bookworm, loyal friend, wife, mother, and graceful dancer, Mrs. Astor was always the life of the party. Slightly built though she was, Mrs. Astor did absolutely nothing in a small way. She led the Vincent Astor Foundation until age 95, at the same time serving on a half-dozen charitable boards, writing four books (including two well-praised novels), and 1 keeping fit by swimming in every season.

By most standards it’s lengthy; however, teaspoon research can’t convey large insight into such groups. Rothschild this, Rothschild that, Rothschild everything, is as wrong as wrong can be. They have an important place in the scheme of things, but in no way does this exclude OTHER dynasties! I suggest you download this PDF and the similarly detailed sequel to your files and read at your convenience, as few will have the staying power to read it nonstop! Naturally none of the “leading” sites will allow linkage to these research documentaries, as they collectively made decision long ago to black out my research! I was however mentioned at Sprott Money by Jeff Nielson. The Sprott folks really couldn’t let me in on my own standing; I had to be piggy backed in on one of their selected favorites; which is far more than GATA ever allowed me. This is written for all the poor sad confused simpleminded souls who think all you need to say about world finance is “Rothschilds,” a truly sad misguided blundering joke for people too lazy to do profound research.
